Chapter 600: Chapter 600

Chen Jiaming spoke to this point, his tone seemingly doubtful. Xiaoliu quickly interjected, "Mr. Chen, rest assured, my grandfather is not like them. Our family is truly sincere towards you. Look, my grandfather has told you everything."

Director Liu glanced at his granddaughter, who was eager to express herself, shook his head, and sighed, "It’s hard to keep girls at home once they grow up."

"Grandpa!" Xiaoliu coquettishly stomped her foot.

"Enough, the tea is ready. Why don’t you go out, take a walk and see about lunch for us? Mr. Chen and I have some private words to exchange."

Upon her grandfather’s words, Xiaoliu blinked, put down the tool in her hand, and walked out.

The glass doors of the backyard closed, and the surroundings quieted, save for a few sparrows, raised by Director Liu, hopping about.

Director Liu asked, "What do you think of my granddaughter?"

Chen Jiaming lowered his eyes slightly, "A man with ambitions should not think of marriage until he has made his mark in his career."

"Xiao Yebai doesn’t have this concern."

That sounded almost like praise for that profligate. For origınal chapters go to 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⁂𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾⁂𝔫𝔢𝔱

Director Liu, seeing him seemingly furrowing his brows, couldn’t help but laugh, "Are you surprised? I’ve said before I dislike Xiao Jianming’s cunning way of favoring his son, as it’s unfair to other young people in the company. However, I must admit, Xiao Jianming doted on the right son."

"What did you say?" Chen Jiaming’s brows knitted together.

"A profligate, right? Everyone says that about him. I go along with public opinion and wouldn’t recklessly speak in public, but I never join others in calling him a wastrel."

"Does Director Liu think he is a promising youth?"

"Isn’t he? Everyone’s saying the Lin Jiale incident was his doing. Many find it incredible that he, having no money, could pull off such a thing. But did you know who he is with now?"

"Who?" Chen Jiaming heard it was that mad wastrel with a man in a wheelchair, which seemed like a match made in heaven.

Now, according to Director Liu, was this man in the wheelchair not an ordinary person?

Director Liu said, "A subordinate of Director Kang gambled away money in Casino City, then got threatened, leading to Kang’s private company’s downfall. This man with the wastrel is said to be a figure whom all of Casino City has banned from entering, known as Zhang Sanfeng."

"I don’t understand. What’s the connection?" Chen Jiaming asked, still unable to comprehend where Xiao Yebai got the money to take over Lin Jiale’s company.

Was that Zhang Sanfeng very wealthy?

"Perhaps, someone else is safeguarding their wealth. You see him as mad, and indeed he is mad. His own father lies in the hospital, yet all he thinks about is avenging his wife." At this point, Director Liu’s tone hinted at contemplation, "Chairman Xiao has been in a coma and it is indeed quite intriguing."

"Are you suggesting he is feigning illness to avoid waking up?"

"Can’t you see yet? Those people, holding more shares in Changda than the Chairman, why are they not eager to parachute into Changda’s headquarters to oust the current management, including Xiao Jianming?"

"Because with Xiao Jianming asleep, who could they oust?" Chen Jiaming’s eyes lit up slightly.

"Exactly. Who could they oust indeed? They could only remove the man sitting on the throne because if the company needs to continue operating normally, they would have to coax the people below, not drive them away. Acquiring such a gigantic company involved so much capital; it wasn’t to buy a failing business. It was to continue making high profits for them," said Director Liu, taking another sip of his tea.
